Many of its professionals build long-term careers within the company, making investment in training a strategic decision with lasting impact.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.revistanuclear.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Westinghouse-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large wp-image-30965 alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/www.revistanuclear.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Westinghouse-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Luca Oriani, presidente global de nuevos reactores (APx), y Xavier Coll, presidente de Westinghouse Espa\u00f1a\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.revistanuclear.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Westinghouse-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.revistanuclear.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Westinghouse-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.revistanuclear.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Westinghouse-770x578.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.revistanuclear.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Westinghouse-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.revistanuclear.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Westinghouse-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.revistanuclear.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Westinghouse-500x375.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.revistanuclear.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Westinghouse-293x220.jpg 293w, https:\/\/www.revistanuclear.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Westinghouse-1400x1050.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><noscript><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-30965 alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/www.revistanuclear.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Westinghouse-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Luca Oriani, presidente global de nuevos reactores (APx), y Xavier Coll, presidente de Westinghouse Espa\u00f1a\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.revistanuclear.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Westinghouse-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.revistanuclear.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Westinghouse-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.revistanuclear.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Westinghouse-770x578.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.revistanuclear.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Westinghouse-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.revistanuclear.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Westinghouse-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.revistanuclear.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Westinghouse-500x375.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.revistanuclear.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Westinghouse-293x220.jpg 293w, https:\/\/www.revistanuclear.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Westinghouse-1400x1050.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/noscript><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong><b>A SIMULATOR THAT REPLICATES THE REAL CONTROL ROOM<\/b><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The<strong> AP1000 simulator<\/strong> allows operators to train in an environment that faithfully reproduces the actual control room, including digital instrumentation and control systems, consoles, and the dynamic behavior of the plant. \u201cEverything in a nuclear power plant is based on extremely reliable technology, but it still requires highly qualified people who know how to operate each system correctly,\u201d Oriani emphasized.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The AP1000 reactor incorporates <strong>passive safety systems<\/strong> capable of maintaining critical functions without the need for external power for at least <strong>72 hours<\/strong> in the event of an extreme incident. This simplified and standardized design philosophy reduces dependence on active systems and strengthens overall plant robustness.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition, the modular design of the AP1000 makes it possible to optimize construction time and cost.

The AP1000 is a Generation III+ pressurized water reactor (PWR) technology with a nominal output of nearly 1,200 Mwe and a design that prioritizes passive safety and operational efficiency.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Globally, the AP1000 fleet has generated more than 245 TWh of electricity through 2024 and currently provides around 6.8 GWe to the power grid, with availability factors above 93%. In addition, the design has set industry records for refueling times and performance during early operating cycles.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong>SPAIN, IN THE NEW EUROPEAN NUCLEAR LANDSCAPE<\/strong><\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The opening of the AP1000 Academy comes at a moment of redefinition for Spain\u2019s energy framework, where the debate continues over the timeline for<strong> phasing out the current nuclear fleet<\/strong> and the role that this technology can play in the energy transition. In this context, the decision to locate a European-scale training center in Madrid reinforces the country\u2019s position as a technical hub within the international nuclear ecosystem.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During the presentation, Oriani underscored the unique value of Spanish talent and the extensive experience of the country\u2019s industry. \u201cSpain is unique; it has the talent we need and very easily facilitates the arrival of experts from around the world,\u201d he stated, highlighting the country\u2019s capacity to integrate into projects of global scale.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Asked about the evolution of the national energy debate, Oriani adopted a long-term view: \u201cDiscussions change. Spain will build new nuclear plants. It may not be immediate, but we have been working for 140 years, and we know how to wait.\u201d Beyond political timelines, the company thus maintains its strategic commitment to the Spanish market and its role in Europe\u2019s nuclear development<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong>MADRID, EUROPEAN CENTER FOR NUCLEAR TRAINING<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With this inauguration, Westinghouse consolidates its Nuclear Training Center in Madrid as a European benchmark for AP1000 technology training. The company plans to progressively expand its training portfolio and strengthen cooperation with clients and international organizations. <strong>\u201cSpain is a strategic location\u201d<\/strong>, Oriani emphasized. \u201cIts geographical position facilitates connection with the United States, and with Central and Eastern Europe.
